new york. >> this is cnn newsroom with paula newton hello, and a very warm welcome to our viewers in the united states and all around the world. i'm paula newton. it is 8:00 am in beirut where fears are growing that the exchange of missile fire between israel and hezbollah could now turn into a ground war. us officials say is israeli troops have mobilized and are moving to the border with lebanon in what could be, could be preparation for a ground incursion israel saying that a ground offensive is only one option that is currently being considered, not the idf continued their air offensive on saturday with blasts hitting close to the beirut airport saturday strikes in lebanon reportedly killed more than 30 people and wounded close to 200 others. has belonged for its part fired back, saying it launched missiles towards jerusalem, prompting a response from israeli air defenses

police say pieces of an interest intercepted missile crashed in the suburbs all that is happening after israel killed hezbollah's leader hassan nasrallah, prompting new fears of a wider war in the region. now, hezbollah is pledging to continue its fight while iran says israel will face a crushing blow for the killing, israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu says his country is now one step closer to achieving its military goals. >> who gummi condemn the elimination of nasrallah is a necessary condition for achieving the goals we have said returning the residents of the north safely to their homes and changing the balance of power in the region over the years. because as long as nasrallah lived, he would quickly restore the capabilities we took away from hezbollah. that's why i gave the directive. and azrallah is no longer with us are standing by to bring us right up to date. elliott

gotkine is in london. paula hancocks joins us from abu dhabi and elliott first to you, what more are you learning about israel's next moves potentially and crucially, what has stated our its strategic goals when it comes to hezbollah paula, look, we know that israel's main strategic goal or stated strategic goal, is to create the conditions that enable the 60,000 plus israelis that have been displaced from their homes in the north of israel to enable them to return to their homes. >> they've not been able to do so for the best part of a year since hezbollah began firing on israel on october the eighth in solidarity with the hamas-led terrorist attacks, a day before. so that's the stated goal, but i think so spectacular have been some of the tactical achievements by israel in terms of the pager explosions, the walkie-talkie explosions. and then the assassination of hezbollah's leader hassan nasrallah. and much of hezbollah's military top brass that it will feel that now it's the time to try to degrade hezbollah not once and for all, but certainly for the foreseeable future. and at

the same time, remove what is effectively iran's first line of defense against israel. and to try, which has been trying to deter israel from carrying out strikes on israel's nuclear facilities. so that's kind of one of the strategy he's in the north with prime minister benjamin netanyahu also said something interesting. we saw one of the clips from his statement on saturday evening. what he also said was the elimination of hassan nasrallah, the leader of hezbollah, advances the return of our own residents to their homes in the north. it also advances the return of our hostages in the south as he puts it, as he put it, the killing of hassan nasrallah and the fact that hezbollah appears to be reeling from all of these many israeli attacks that without nasrallah being able to come to the rescue in netanyahu's words, that that will make yahya sinwar the leader of hamas and the architect of the october the 7 attacks. that will make him more likely to return the hundred or so israeli hostages. about a third of whom are

believed to be dead already, to return them to israel after almost a year in captivity. so those are some of the strategies of israel. and of course, the possibility of a ground incursion remains very much alive. israel has said itself herzi halevi the israel's top general, said to troops that they should prepare for such an eventuality. a spokesman told wolf blitzer that was a possibility. and from the u.s perspective, a senior administration official and other us officials tell cnn that they see the possibility of a limited israeli ground incursion. but they sense that israel has yet to make that decision and that polar is a decision that israel well, not take lightly, given the debacle that took place the last time there was an israeli ground incursion into thousand and six something that israel's own state commission of inquiry subsequently described as hasty and poorly planned. israel will not want to make the same mistakes again, paula. which again brings the question of what does the limit? it incursion look like? if that's even possible pollen out to you, hezbollah of course, is vowing to respond. but the question is hour is how it is

clearly still reeling from the assassination of its leader. obviously, delta brutal bode was military capabilities and then waiting in the wings as iran learned many times in the past that's assassinating a leader does not eradicate a movement. >> they have been assassinating hamas leaders for, for decades now. and yet it was the ground invasion into gaza that weakened and to that movement ultimately, i think there is an understanding that this is a massive demoralization for the hezbollah group, but it doesn't necessarily mean that it is going to have a direct impact on its operational capabilities. it is still a significant threat to israel. it is still a significant military force in the region. and of course, as you mentioned, you do have to consider what a run. it main

funder and support her would be willing to do we've heard from many former and senior us officials saying that they believe this assassination and what is happening now? i've does make it far more likely that there will be a wider conflict. but also pointing out that once senior us official said they believed that iran will intervene if they feel that they are about to lose hezbollah. so that could be the key if hezbollah does seem to be suitably weakened israel's eyes then maybe that would encourage iran to get involved as well. and that does become a far wider and more dangerous conflict. now we've had a statement from hezbollah. they have said that they will continue to fight despite what has happened. we've also heard from the iranian ambassador to the united nations calling for united nations security council emergency meeting on what has happened but we've also heard from the iranian supreme leader

saying that the fate of this region now rests on the resistance groups. and at the top of that is hezbollah. what this is it's really pointing out to is that this is not just about one group, it is not just about hezbollah and the leader of that group, there are many other militias around the region that could step in now and it's give more support to hezbollah. and we've certainly been hearing that supports vocally around the region. let's listen to one palestinian leader netanyahu thinks to the assassination of the great leader, the master and the icon of the resistance. >> sayyed hassan nasrallah will impact the resistance and will impact our ability to continue our struggle than he is delusional and we will see did that he is in the coming days. on the contrary, this will inflame the resistance and the fighters and their willingness to struggle

that they did launch a long-range missile from lebanon to the jerusalem area. and the idf did confirm there were sirens and there was an interception in that area. so it's also a reminder that hezbollah does have an awful lot of these long-range missiles in reserve. we really haven't seen that that part of the equation at this point, there was one that was intercepted close to the tel aviv area which has blessed was was targeting the mossad mossad headquarters at that point, but it is a reminder as well that there is an awful lot of arsenal that can reach further into israel that hezbollah has not really used up until this point. paula we will wait and see what that response is as it will likely will come. >> elliott gotkine, paula hancocks for us. thank you both now, other middle eastern leaders are also expressing sorelle an outrage over nasrallah is killing syrians. government is condemning the israeli strike that killed hezbollah leader and a large

number of innocent civilians in beirut. palestinian authority president meantime, bakhmut abbas says he gives heartfelt sympathies to the lebanese government and any civilian casualties. jordan's foreign minister says his country will hold israel fully responsible for the catastrophic consequences of its attacks on lebanon and egypt's foreign minister spoke out at the un. listen israeli escalation. >> it's dangerous and it knows no limits. it is pushing the region to the brink of the abyss. we categorically reject and strongly condemn israel's current aggression vis-a-vis lebanon this is a flagrant violation of lebanon's sovereignty, its territorial integrity, its unity, and its political independence you know, we'll assess the middle east bureau chief for the los angeles times and he joins me now from beirut. >> it is good to have you here as we continue to try and parse what is going on in the ground and you have seen the reaction

there as you have reported, there is shock, fear and unfortunately, right, that unshakable dread about what comes next. what is at stake for civilians in lebanon? they know all too well what has gone on in gaza for the last 11 months well, so of course, having already, if you go to the south of the country, you can see wide swaths of the area there just obliterated houses, god et cetera. >> if you walk around beirut, you can see the effects already as well with hundreds of people well, just sleeping on the pavements. >> i mean, yesterday i did a quick drive around the city and basically all around beirut's waterfront areas like the corniche near employed by the public beach area near dosha. >> i mean, you just see people sleeping on the sidewalks in parks and public spaces. and most of those have been i mean, they've residents of the bahia, which was the beirut southern suburbs that are dominated by hezbollah, that

area too, i should tell you, is now a ghost town. i actually dared to drive around the periphery of yesterday and go a little bit closer and you could see just columns of smoke everywhere of course, but more to the point, the whole area it's completely emptied of civilians shots are close. >> obviously, you could see, you know, light. it was quite an eerie situation because this used to be a very, very crowded neighborhood in beirut's when its own rhythm and its own personality and now it's very much a ghost town. you can see the effects firsthand when it comes to, i guess, military defeat and what that means i suppose is that now as we talk about a ground invasion, there is a fear of repeating history and lebanon. when we go back to the previous israeli occupation of south lebanon and parts of beirut account of going through that neighborhood and few people have been there, especially given the destruction you are quoting people there as saying that look after this how can we feel anything?

>> and you spoke to another who said the future is gone given everything that you've seen, heard, and i understand that we are just really we in the first few days after this. did hezbollah miscalculate here, did they assume that there are signal their tactics amounted to deterrence when it didn't deter israel at all. >> well, it's worth noting that for a long time has been leaders have talked about this notion of the equation deterrence, or rules of engagement in arabic, they would say modelica, there idea was here, that they would basically the day it established an equation with israel, since other than six, whereby israel struck i, mean, if they kill civilians or they struck lebanese city, that has been struck israeli cities and attack israeli civilians. and the fact of the matter is that for every time israel has escalated in the last 11 months, hezbollah blinked in the sense that yes, it would love additional rockets yesterday with love additional missiles but, escalation is,

we're not really, or the responses perhaps were not equal to israel's escalation. in each case. and frankly, at some point it just seemed that is israel understood that this notion of deterrence was no longer there. and the arsenal, although in theory impressive, hadn't been used. >> and so i think at that point that feeling was since there was no deterrence that they could go for it. >> and indeed they did. and the result is what we see now which is to say is that yes it's great to say that you have a deterrence and that you have a missile or much of the missile arsenal but if you're not willing to use it at some point, then questionable idea. >> and to follow up on that, do you believe hezbollah can retaliate in a forceful way now or is this really going to be up to around to in its words, avenge nasrallah is dead well, the question is finally, i mean, right now has hezbollah can still fire these rockets on northern israel. indeed, it did yesterday i mean, i haven't

seen any today, but potentially that would continue and that alone would i suppose going to be a problem in terms of letting residents return to northern israel. >> now, in terms of i see mounting a serious attack in response. i don't know. i actually don't think so because the fact is leadership is now decimated as far as i can tell we still haven't heard anything of a new leader. and this is now more than 48 hours after the killing of my sunlen. so the fact is they don't regroup quickly and we see some kind of action. i don't think we'll see me i think more than the low-level stuff that we haven't seen for the last 11 months. unfortunately really interesting perspective there and we remind everyone that so many civilians in lebanon, once again caught in the middle. >> i'll be i really thank you for your perspective and we'll continue to check in with you now after the break, us politicians react to hello leader hassan nasrallah is deaths. our breaking news coverage continues right here on cnn we're watching and then the

next day, our world change. murphy has baby, quayle has cao owns coming out episodes says to the world gets okay to me george bush does not care about black people i never said something that i wrote with me to a culture war. you didn't shoot back like this you sound like tv on the edge. >> moments that shaped our culture tomorrow at nine on cnn bookstores, i read that one, i read that one. >> i read that. i didn't read that one. didn't read that can you get this? because i left by what way? >> he didn't my back pocket. my pleasure because i earned unlimited 2% cashback this is fascinating. did you know wheels in barnacles have a parasitic relationship though i 12 called parasitic relationships. >> let's go barnacle limited 2% cash back at the wells fargo active cash credit card when it comes to amgen life changing

means. his vice president echoes a statement, kamala harris says hassan nasrallah was a terrorist with american blood on his hands across decades of leadership of hezbollah, destabilized the middle east and led to the killing of countless innocence people in lebanon, israel, syria, and around the world president biden and i do not want to see conflict in the middle east escalate into a broader regional war. diplomacy remains the best path forward to protect civilians and achieve lasting stability in the region. now, meanwhile, us officials say they see the possibility of a limited ground incursion into lebanon as israel moves it's forces to its northern border, or the white house says it is keeping a close eye on israel as it tries to anticipate prime minister benjamin netanyahu's next moves. or liebermann explains what the u.s. believes may happen next. >> the us sees the possibility of a limited israeli ground incursion into southern lebanon

according to two us officials but crucially, the u.s. believes israel hasn't made a final decision on whether to carry out a ground incursion into lebanon. now, israelis have signaled quite openly that they're preparing for that possibility. the top israeli general said much on wednesday and crucially, a senior israeli official said on friday, just before the strike that killed hezbollah leader hassan nasrallah, that israel hopes it doesn't have to carry out a ground incursion into lebanon, but the officials say that the u.s. has seen the mobilization of more israeli forces the clearing of areas along israel's northern border, that would be in preparation for a ground incursion. so that possibility is widening is growing as the u.s. continues to head off a regional war. and drives the signal to israel that a ground incursion is very much not the way to proceed here. crucially. and this is important to note israel's goal when it comes to lebanon and hezbollah is not the elimination of hezbollah or the destruction of hezbollah

completely that would almost certainly require a very large ground incursion. its goal here is to return more than 60,000 residents to their homes in northern israel, which they've been displaced from basically since october 8 and since hezbollah started firing rockets and drones into northern israel, the question of course is, what does it take to make that happen? and at what point israel feel comfortable doing that? and that's where a ceasefire, an agreement may very well be necessary. and that's why the u.s. let's keeps pushing in that direction still, israel very clearly has the advantage over hezbollah and it's going to push that advantage. israel has long believed that another war with hezbollah was inevitable, basically ever since the end of the 2006 war. and because of that, the israeli security establishment has been working on its intelligence when it comes to hezbollah at working on preparations and plans for that war. and now that it seems we're at that point israel is very much pressing the advantage that it has, how far it will go. that's what the u.s. is trying to figure out.

and that's what it seems israel itself is trying to figure out as we see, the continuation of israeli strikes in lebanon, the displacement of hundreds of thousands of lebanese civilians in southern lebanon in beirut and beyond us trying to steer off the regional war. but of course, part of that question is, what is iran decide to do at this point, the u.s has significant forces in the region a carrier strike group in and around the gulf of oman in the persian gulf an amphibious ready group in the eastern mediterranean sea. they've had fighter squadrons, additional fighter squadrons in the middle least for several months now. and president joe ordered defense secretary lloyd austin to further enhance force posture. so we'll learn over the next several days what exactly that entails. the region bracing for a response, the us state department pulling some personnel from lebanon, that being said, a neo a noncombatant evacuation in order the evacuation of us citizens from lebanon that has not been ordered yet. the region very much bracing for

what comes next. oren liebermann, cnn in washington us republican leaders meantime, are celebrating nasrallah's death and social media posts on saturday in a joint statement with other gop officials, house speaker mike johnson called the hezbollah leader a quote, puppet of the iranian regime. >> and he praised the israeli defense force for delivering justice to israeli victims. mean times senate republican leader mitch mcconnell says, israelis, americans, lebanese, and syrians are safer without him on the battlefield. joining me now from los angeles cnn political analyst ron brownstein, he is also the senior editor for the atlantic and ron, ron, i'm glad to see you and glad that you're going to help us out here. i mean, look, it has been weeks now and most principally in the last few hours that i have been schooled by middle east analyst when i say that the biden administration looks impotent when it comes against not netanyahu and clearly the way he wants to press ahead in both gaza and now in lebanon, they

said no, no, no, no, this has nothing to do with impotence that it's calculated so if we try and then reflect this onto the campaign, can you explain what's at work here? because this continued refrain from both harris and biden that there needs to be a ceasefire. certainly doesn't seem like anyone is listening yeah. look, this has been the pattern for 30 years. >> i mean, bill clinton left the meeting when that you would famously say, who is the blank, blank superpower here particularly with democratic presidents, netanyahu has a long history of kind of taking their advice and then depositing in and the trash as he walks out the door. so biden has been has put himself in this position really over time. i mean, he talked about the bear hug after october 7. you thought to get influence netanyahu by embracing him? that people who worked for clinton and obama were dubious of that. >> i think the events of the past year has confirmed that no

one in american politics for more the death of the leader of hezbollah. >> but the question of whether israel has a kind of landing an end game for this escalation of military activity, both in gaza now and in lebanon, is a genuine one and biden has i think put himself in an incredibly weaken position by refusing to impose any real consequences on netanyahu over all of the times that he he has said one thing and done another with us about us advice yeah. >> not reluctance to do anything. it seems to continue for both trump and harris though, ron, what are the risks there campaigns if they are seen as being too critical of israel yet neither one really wants to take, you know, take that chance and it's striking. i mean, it is still more striking for biden and harris because the overwhelming

majority of their voters are deeply disaffected from the way netanyahu has prosecuted this war. i mean, there was one poll a few months ago, he had a 6% approval rating among democrats and three quarters of democrats and various polls have wanted them to cut off offensive military aid to israel. i mean, all of that is really just in the background. i think harris on a lot of fronts has put tremendous focus on seeming tough. you saw the way her border speech went on friday where she talked about her role and prosecuted transnational gangs and she does not really want to accept the most fleeting ways signal any daylight any more willingness to confront netanyahu than biden has done. she does not want to let trump portray her as someone who was kind of soft in pursuing these challenges in the mideast but i think the people around her certainly,

and i think the broad range of experts in the democratic party are deeply concerned about the direction this is heading, even as they make share some of the israeli successes on the battlefield, the disabling a terrorist organization or at least debilitating a terrorist organization yeah, and you do mention her speech at the border there. i mean, look, her border policies looks more like the republican policies of all. this could be a different era. >> how far to the right, as she stepped in terms of policy and could this be a winning move or does it risk alienating her own faithful who are looking at her going these border policies seem in your words, pretty tough yeah. i mean, i think there's a little bit of both the biden administer the fact is the challenge at the border has changed. it under the biden administration. the challenge has not been so much people sneaking in the dark of night, hoping away into the population

in phoenix or los angeles or used in the challenges people openly presenting themselves for asylum because they know that the process takes years and while their cases are being adjudicated, they can stay in the u.s. and after a few months begin to work, the biden demonstration took a long time to kind of acknowledge that change in the problem on the ground. but when they did, they announced a significant shift in policy which has had a significant effect. i mean, the number of encounters on the border have gone from about 250,000 a month at the end of last year, that 50,000 a month. now now harris is basic we signaled that she will continue in that direction, extend that direction. this is still not the trump policy though i mean, because i mean, harris in her speech was talking about making the asylum process though more difficult, work better, more judges, more border agents to make that initial determination of peoples a claims of asylum to move things through the

process more quickly. that isn't trump's goal. trump's goal is to basically shut it off to the shut off immigration into the country, particularly, i think of people from non-white predominantly minority countries. >> and when vance when j.d vance said the other day that even haitian people here under temporary protected status, which is a program signed into law by george hw bush that 89 senators voted to create, including mitch mcconnell and chuck grassley and even strom thurmond that i think gave away the game. their goal is simply to reduce immigration. it's not to me make the immigration system work more efficiently. so there's still a difference? yes democrats have repositioned themselves in some ways. i think they've adapted to reality. they're facing a different challenge on the ground. they have new policies to meet it they are to the right of where they were for most of the biden presidency. but it is still a long way from title 40 and remain in mexico. and all of the other measures

that trump can mask musculus, mass deportation. that trump is offering and ron, before i let you go, the polls continue to tighten, especially in those battleground states. >> i mean, i was looking at the numbers in wisconsin and michigan. it could not be closer. do you think now as you have schooled me for years? is that it's going to come down to ground for each party now yeah. >> look, this is extraordinarily close. >> i mean, we are looking at more, wear down to only about six or seven states that are true. swing states. but boy, though states are reeling on the knife's edge and that polling today continue this really striking out that we have seen even when biden was in the race, which is that democrats are largely holding their support in these swing states among white voters compared to 2020. but they are continuing to pull below where they were among non-white voters and the challenge for trump is going to be the republican party of pennsylvania yeah, doesn't really have a lot of experience finding two young black man on

the block and philadelphia. i want to vote for republican presidential candidates. same thing about detroit. >> and the republican party in michigan. >> harris as the challenge in turn of turning out in particular younger voters who are beginning to show more enthusiasm, more interested in campaign, also more support for her. but who were deeply disengaged from biden and are frustrated about their economic situation. same with many relatively younger black and latino voters so yes. as always, the question of who comes out to vote is critical. we in the media focus a lot on the four or five 6% of voters who say in polling, they're pretty certain to vote, but don't know who they're gonna vote for. there were 80 million people who are eligible and didn't vote in 2020. and that is the bigger price for the candidates people of a pretty good idea of who they would vote for. but are uncertain if they're going to come out and vote yeah, not a small slice of the electorate there. ron brownstein, always good to see you appreciate it

has no plans to resign, but the decision maybe out of his hands, new york governor kathy hochul may make the decision for him. cnn's gloria pazmino has more now, gloria, what more are you hearing about this case the mayor kept a pretty low profile here in new york city on saturday he went to church when he was entering church, he was asked whether or not he would resign. >> the mayor did not ask the question, what we know from his comments in the past few days that he has no intention of stepping down and that he is going to fight these charges at least he has said that he has every intention to do so. and we got a chance to listen and learn a little bit about what the defense in this case might look okay. like the mayor was arraigned on friday, he declared himself not guilty and his lawyer spoke to reporter outside of the federal courthouse saying that the gifts and luxury travel and the

airline upgrades that are outlined in the indictment were nothing more than that, just gives and free upgrades. he said that the political donations that the mayor received were secured by staffers who did not tell the mayor that they were taking donations from foreign nationals. so we're starting to see just how the may or may potentially be defending himself in this case. i want you to take a listen then to alex spiro, who is representing eric adams shortly after the arraignment on friday. take a listen. >> this case isn't even a real case. this is the airline upgrade corruption case. there are no emails, text messages, or any corroboration whatsoever that the mnew about anything having to do with these campaign donations, the entire body of evidence is one staffer, one staffer that says there was a conversation what you have not learned is that that staffer has lied and the

government is in possession of that lie now spiral is a referencing a former eric adams staffer who we now know is cooperating with the government. >> now, the question in all of this beyond that, the indictment and beyond the charges is how the mayor is going to survive the political fallout that has resulted from all of this. we know that he does not plan on stepping down, but governor kathy hochul is the only person who has the legal authority to remove him. and our sources close to the mayor had told us that she was looking at the legal language just to make sure that she was keeping her options open this weekend. we're also hearing from the reverend al sharpton. he called on hochul not to use that power saying that the mayor deserves the right to due process and that there is no political precedent here in the city for removing a sitting

mayor. that of course will be what? it'd be a very politically fraught choice for governor hochul to make. so we will see just how this plays out over the next several days of course, in the meantime, the mayor has to get back to the work of running the city in the question is whether or not he's going to be able to do that successfully while he also defended himself from these very serious charges our thanks to gloria pazmino there for that report dragon spacecraft successfully launched from florida's cape canaveral saturday, a two-man team is now on the way to bring two nasa astronauts home from the international space station. >> now astronauts, suni williams and butch wilmore, you'll remember have been stranded on the iss since june after their boeing starliner capsule was deemed too risky for the flight back to earth.
